Maybe using queues for prioritising empty ACKs would already be good enough: http://www.benzedrine.cx/ackpri.html It's PF and ALTQ specific, but the same can be done with other packet filters. Additionally you could give all Tor traffic a lower priority, I think it would be a better solution than to set a hard bandwidth limit in Tor, which most of the time would limit your server more than necessary. Fabian I have this in my iptables script: # TOR iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9090 -j MARK --set-mark 2 iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9090 -j RETURN iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9091 -j MARK --set-mark 2 iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9091 -j RETURN as 2 tor has a high priority,now is on 5 . An another question is :if  i announce port 110  and redirect traffic to 9090 which port shall i consider as priority in the above iptables  ? Silly question isn't ?
